MUMBAI (Web Desk) - In a heartwarming display of generosity, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar has come to the aid of Punjabi singer Glory Bawa, who had been struggling financially and sought help from the government through social media.
The actor sent her Rs25 lakh, a gesture that has been widely appreciated and has brought relief to Glory and her family.
As reported by the Hindustan Times, Glory Bawa expressed her immense gratitude towards Akshay Kumar. She said, “I don’t have words to explain what it means to me.”
She further mentioned that the financial aid would significantly help her and her family. However, Glory emphasised her desire to work, saying, “But I want work and have been asking for the same.
